NATIONAL ART MUSEUM
Located in the western part of the Palace, the entrance to this beautiful museum is guarded by two male and female lions. Beside them stand the sculptures of Hanuman, the monkey god. The museum also exhibits sculptures of Narsingha dating from the 17th century, beautiful thangkas and paubhas, painted banners of mythological and religious scenes according to the Newar tradition, as well as prayer books illustrated with palm leaves. There are also portraits of all the Shah Kings who succeeded each other, which allows us to visualize the Nepalese monarchy.
